Favorite Movie Watch?
Anybody have a favorite watch featured in a movie? I would be pretty unlikely to buy it, but this beefy tool watch was featured in the movie The Martian. Its a Hamilton Khaki Navy BelowZero. I particularly enjoyed when he apparently turned it from an automatic watch into a Casio digital by pressing the side of the case with a nice, anachronistic beep.
My other favorite does not really exist to my knowledge. Its a watch worn in Hail, Caesar by Josh Brolin. Waltham made a watch like this, but it seems to a bit different. Most likely a reproduction for the movie.
What is your favorite movie watch?

I guess the Hamilton "Interstellar", since I own one...
Maybe I'm the odd one out, but seeing a watch in a movie doesn't really make me like it more.
Willard
(From Apocalypse Now, not the movie Willard...)
The Alsta"Hooper"Nauthoscaph from Jaws

Its not that it makes me like or dislike a watch more. Honestly I am still relatively new to the world of watches so its a fun way to see something I would not necessarily have otherwise seen.

Looks awesome on the black tropic strap

Totally fair, I wasn't trying to be judgemental.
I've just not seen many movie watches I like I suppose.
The colonel Kurtz Rolex gmt from apocalypse now.
Even if I bought a 1675 (expensive but hypothetically possible), I wouldn't have the stones to pop off the bezel to get the appropriate look.

Might be a slightly different look with the crown being at 4 but I am sure someone has modded a seiko dress kx to look like that
So many iconic movies with watches I don’t particularly like
Aliens Ripley’s Seiko
Arnie’s Predator Seiko
Tons of Rolexes in any movie with wealth or politics
I suppose faves are the Willard (I own a turtle) and any of the the bond seamasters
I would usually say any of the Alien watches or the Arnie, but having just seen Bullet Train I feel I have to share the selection of watches they wear...
I'm a bit of a fan

The horror...
I've got the Willard, and if I pried the bezel off my 16750, that would get me close the the "Kurtz"...

the casio calculator because it is in so many film and series that I can't make a list... jurasic park, the office, justice league, back to the futur... and lot more. Basically everytime there is a geek in a movie, he ALWAYS wear a casio calculator. It is an Hollywood's rule.
